WiFi - QRCode Generator

Hello,

 

I wrote a small script which will generate QRCodes for configured SSIDs. The script is using asyncio and api version 1.

 

 

 

 

 

usage: generate_qrcodes.py [-h] [-o ORGANIZATION] [-n NETWORKS [NETWORKS ...]]
                           [-s SSIDS [SSIDS ...]]

Generates QRCodes from Meraki wireless networks

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -o ORGANIZATION, --organization ORGANIZATION
                        the name/id of the organization
  -n NETWORKS [NETWORKS ...], --network NETWORKS [NETWORKS ...]
                        the name/id of the networks to generate the qr codes
                        from.  If you are providing this parameter, then you must 
                        provide the organization.
  -s SSIDS [SSIDS ...], --ssid SSIDS [SSIDS ...]
                        the name of the ssids to generate the qr codes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You have to provide at least the organization or network parameter.

 

the QRCodes will be places in a subdirectory "img". The Filename is {NetworkName}_{SSID}.png.

I am interested in trying this out.  Do you know if this script is still valid.  ....

yes it is still working fine. There is a deprecation warning, which can be ignored at the moment.

Just to confirm, this will let me create a QR Code for a guest wifi access with a splash page?  Also, I am getting a SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED on trying, and I guess I have to setup a certificate in addition to the API KEY. Do you know where I can find info on setting up a certificate for Meraki?

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

I was able to get this working, but I have a question on the user experience, as the QR codes are asking me to joint the guest wifi network, but it is not causing the splash page to come up.  I can share a video if you want to see.

hello @Fantasticmrfox  can you please share the video of how you were able to get the QR codes working?

Thanks!
